It would be more accurate to say that lpr simply waits until the
printer is available.

It sounds as if the printer server (i.e. the Windows box which has the
printer attached) may be "eating" the document, i.e. accepting it but
failing to print it. If that is the case, there isn't anything that
you can do on the Linux box to solve the problem.
